Happy Birthday to Jazz!

Ling “Jazz” Zhou was born in Kansas City, Kansas, 33 years ago today (okay, if she was real, that is). A master at showmanship who gives away nothing about herself—she is quite possibly the most direct character I’ve written so far, while also being the most guarded. Her world and her self-view have been turned upside-down after the events of Wandering Soul. How fitting that her birthday should occur while I’m writing her book! 🙂
